OpenAir MT
In this remote artist residency project, Robin Dluzen (Chicago), Maggy Hiltner (Red Lodge, MT), and Elina Ansary (Brooklyn) spent one month creating a 24 x 36" base panel in a material and technique of their choice. The panels were mailed to the next artist for another month-long work session, and finally to the last artist to finish. View this work, and writing by each of the artists on the official OpenAir MT CoLab exhibition website.
